Help For Katie

Katie2


This week there is a huge outpouring of love from the stamping community for one of our own.. Katie Renz.  You can read her story HERE on her blog.  I was on a design team with Katie and cannot even imagine what she is going through.  There are several different card drives going on so I thought I would send this card out to her.  I used Flourishes 
I Love Roses Set.  The paper is from Basic Grey's Curio line. 

I also wanted to play in the teapot Tuesday Challenge over on Splitcoaststampers.  This week Mothermark is honoring Katie and we are all sending our cards to her.  Check out all the details HERE and come play along.  Great group of stampers.


Katie 

Starting this week Katie's friend Jak Heath has coordinated a big fund raiser to help Katie's family.  Over 16 companies got together and created some goodies for the give away.. You can check out all the details on Jak's blog HERE. 

I will keep Katie in my thoughts and prayers.

    oh this is such a pretty card Dawn. I just mailed a card off to Katie on Friday and plan to send her one every couple of weeks. She is such a strong, brave woman. It's good to see so many people caring for her.

    I peeked Dawn (sorry)... thanks so much, it means a lot to me and I'm so happy that we did get to work together. Thank you doesn't seem like enough, but just know that there is a lot more in there than just those 2 little words.

    Gorgeous card, Dawn! Love the deep red of the rose. I'm sure she will be greatly touched. That story brought tears to my eyes. Can't even begin to imagine what she is going through with having such young kids...

    This card is so stunning! I saw it on SCS and not sure I commented on it, but I just LOVE it! Not sure why, but I love rose images (maybe because my middle name is Rose?). :-)
